Small scheduling interruptions can cause big problems with your ability to accomplish tasks effectively and on time. Regardless of how focused you may be, there will always be interruptions that distract you from your work. In this discussion, you’ll need to identify some of the unplanned events or tasks that usually interrupt your schedule. If you haven’t experienced many scheduling interruptions, consider how you might if you were balancing family, work, school, and recreation at the same time.

Create one initial post and follow up with at least two response posts.

For your initial post, address the following:

1. Identify what has, usually does, or can interrupt your schedule.
2. Identify which of these interruptions you have had control over and which ones you haven’t.
   1. Examples: You do not have control over getting a flat tire on your way to work; however, you do have control over how much time you spend on social media.
3. Discuss how these interruptions have impacted your ability to accomplish tasks successfully.
4. Consider how you’ve adjusted your schedule to deal with these interruptions.

For your response posts, address the following:

1. What interruptions did your classmates identify that you may have overlooked in your initial post?
   1. What made you initially overlook these interruptions, and how could your classmates’ interruptions also interrupt you?
2. Offer some friendly advice on how they could possibly adjust their schedule to get the most out of their time.

Remember, this assignment is graded on the quality of your initial post and at least two response posts to your classmates.
